THE DROP
Slaughter to Prevail’s Alex Terrible just dropped a cover of The Cranberries’ “Zombie” on July 9 *. This is exactly the kind of left-field move that either works brilliantly or crashes hard — taking a ’90s alt-rock anthem and running it through a deathcore filter.
WHAT TO KNOW
- Released as a standalone YouTube video *
- Terrible tackling Dolores O’Riordan’s iconic vocal melody with his signature guttural style
- No word on whether this is a one-off experiment or part of a larger covers project
THE TAKE
The concept alone is wild enough to warrant attention — “Zombie” has that haunting vocal line that could either translate into something genuinely heavy or just feel like a meme. Terrible’s got the vocal range to pull off something unexpected here, but covers like this live or die on whether they bring new intensity or just novelty.
JASON’S TAKE: This is fucking horrible.
